Express Yourself Black Man

If you want to listen to the full episode (XYBM 129) from this clip, search for the title: "How to Build Stronger Black Families with Mel, Dimetri and David” — it was released on: April 21, 2025.

In XYBM 129, I sit down with my friends Mel, David, and Dimetri for a powerful conversation about growing up in single-parent households and the profound impact it has on Black men’s emotional development. We explore the effects of ‘tough love,’ the struggles of healing from mother wounds, and how these experiences shape who we become as men. We also dive deep into the importance of breaking generational cycles and how each new generation of Black families can create a healthier, more empowered legacy.
       
This episode is a candid, raw discussion about the emotional challenges we face as Black men, and how healing and self-awareness can pave the way for better futures. It’s a must listen if you’re trying to better yourself as a man.
